So long story short. I bought an Exquisite wrasse 4 days ago. I put him in my DT which has 4 other wrasses in it. Now these last two days the Exquisite seems to be showing aggression towards my Solarensis. I do not like it one bit and if it doesn't stop, the Exquisite has to go! He shows no aggression to anybody else but the Solarensis. He is not on his tail all the time just when he kind of notices him. He doesn't seem to be trying to hurt him just chasing him here and there. Has anyone else encountered this with their Exquisites? Mostly everything I read says they are peaceful and that is one of the reasons I pulled the trigger. It is really aggravating me as my Solarensis is like a baby to me. Any input would be appreciated. TIA!
 
A little chasing is normal. As long as they don't start hurting each other they'll be OK.

Agree. An occasional short chase and flashing is fine. So long as they're not nipping each other or one is forcing the other into hiding, I don't worry.
 
My wrasses do this when i add a new one. It usually lasts a couple of days until there use to eachother. Then it stops. At least in my case.
